She said it was a great experience and she had a lot of fun. She received a brand new laptop and bragging rights for doing so well (although Lexy definitely isn't the type to brag about herself). Lexy has been taking part in spelling bees since 4th grade and has always done really well. This is the last year that Lexy is eligible to participate in the bee, so it was an excellent way to finish her run.</p>
<p>This is not a small feat. The state-wide spelling bee is very competitive and has students from schools all over Utah. Before the traditional rounds of elimination that most of us have seen in movies, students take a written test. This is where most students are eliminated. Even making it past that point is great. The fact that she took 3rd out of all those kids is pretty awesome. Make sure to congratulate Lexy if you see her.</p>

Utah has a very powerful resource and that is the SafeUT app. As you all know, the SafeUT app provides real-time crisis intervention and has been proven to save lives and stopped planned school attacks. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Our goal is to make sure that every parent, student, and educator is aware of the app and has it downloaded on their phone. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Throughout the day, KSL will be highlighting all that the app can do, the history behind it, the success stories and much more. In addition, there will be some fun for the students. Below is the outline to encourage student involvement:</div>
<div>· Encourage your friends to download the app</div>
<div>· Use hashtag #SafeUT on posts</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>KSL Contest:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Individuals will be able to share a screenshot of their phone with the app downloaded for a chance to win a $50 visa card</div>
<div> </div>
<div>These screenshots will need to be posted in the contest on the KSL TV Facebook page</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The school that is tagged the most by their students will receive 100 pizzas from KSL!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The contest will start <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1869279272"><span class="aQJ">Thursday, February 22 and Friday, February 23 at 3 p.m.</span></span></div>

If this seems a bit unusual, you are right. It doesn't happen very often that students are able to sit down with Admin and teacher leaders and ask them about school programs. The students had this opportunity to help them with a project that they are doing for English.</p>
<p>In order to teach students to work in teams and solve problems, the 9th-grade English teachers have challenged students to develop proposals for how they would change Olympic Time here at Salem Jr. in order to make it more effective. We are excited to hear what they come up with. They have learned about the purpose that Olympic Time serves and are now preparing to develop proposals which they will present in front of their teachers and peers. Who knows, maybe one of their ideas will be put into practice next year.</p>
